Abstract
Green synthesis of iron nanoparticles is a highly fascinating research area and has gained importance due to reliable, sustainable and ecofriendly protocol for synthesizing nanoparticles, along with the easy availability of plant materials and their pharmacological significance. As an alternate to physical and chemical synthesis, the biological materials, like microorganisms and plants are considered to be less costly and environment-friendly. Iron nanoparticles with diverse morphology and size have been synthesized using biological extracts. Microbial (bacteria, fungi, algae etc.) and plant extracts have been employed in green synthesis of iron nanoparticles due to the presence of various metabolites and biomolecules. Physical and biochemical properties of biologically synthesized iron nanoparticles are superior to that are synthesized using physical and chemical agents. Iron nanoparticles have magnetic property with thermal and electrical conductivity. Iron nanoparticles below a certain size (generally 10-20 nm), can exhibit a unique form of magnetism called superparamagnetism. They are non-toxic and highly dispersible with targeted delivery, which are suitable for efficient drug delivery to the target. Green synthesized iron nanoparticles have been explored for multifarious biotechnological applications. These iron nanoparticles exhibited antimicrobial and anticancerous properties. Iron nanoparticles adversely affect the cell viability, division and metabolic activity. Iron nanoparticles have been used in the purification and immobilization of various enzymes/proteins. Iron nanoparticles have shown potential in bioremediation of various organic and inorganic pollutants. This review describes various biological sources used in the green synthesis of iron nanoparticles and their potential applications in biotechnology, diagnostics and mitigation of environmental pollutants.

Abstract
The frequency of human exposure to persistent particles via consumer products, air pollution, and work environments is a modern-day hazard and an active area of research. Particle density and crystallinity, which often dictate their persistence in biological systems, are associated with strong light absorption and reflectance. These attributes allow several persistent particle types to be identified without the use of additional labels using laser light-based techniques such as microscopy, flow cytometry, and imaging flow cytometry. This form of identification allows the direct analysis of environmental persistent particles in association with biological samples after in vivo studies and real-life exposures. Microscopy and imaging flow cytometry have progressed with computing capabilities and fully quantitative imaging techniques can now plausibly detail the interactions and effects of micron and nano-sized particles with primary cells and tissues. This chapter summarises studies which have utilized the strong light absorption and reflectance characteristics of particles for their detection in biological specimens. This is followed by the description of methods for the analysis of whole blood samples and the use of imaging flow cytometry to identify particles in association with primary peripheral blood phagocytic cells, using brightfield and darkfield parameters.

Abstract
Particles injected intravenously are thought to be cleared by macrophages residing in the liver and spleen, but they also encounter circulating immune cells. It remains to be established if the circulating cells can take up particles while flowing and if the uptake capacity is similar under static and flow conditions. Here, we use an in vitro peristaltic pump setup that mimics pulsatile blood flow to determine if immune cells take up particles under constant fluidic flow. We use polystyrene particles of varying sizes as the model of a polymeric particle for these studies. Our results show that the immune cells do phagocytose under flow conditions. We demonstrate that cell lines representing myeloid cells, primary human neutrophils, and monocytes take up submicrometer-sized particles at similar or better rates under flow compared to static conditions. Experiments with whole human blood show that, even under the crowding effects of red blood cells, neutrophils and monocytes take up particles while flowing. Together, these data suggest that circulating immune cells are likely to phagocytose intravenously injected particulates, which has implications for the design of particles to evade or target these cells.

Abstract
Significant research and preclinical investment in cancer nanomedicine has produced several products, which have improved cancer care. Nevertheless, there exists a perception that cancer nanomedicine 'has not lived up to its promise' because the number of approved products and their clinical performance are modest. Many of these analyses do not consider the long clinical history and many clinical products developed from iron oxide nanoparticles. Iron oxide nanoparticles have enjoyed clinical use for about nine decades demonstrating safety, and considerable clinical utility and versatility. FDA-approved applications of iron oxide nanoparticles include cancer diagnosis, cancer hyperthermia therapy, and iron deficiency anemia. For cancer nanomedicine, this wealth of clinical experience is invaluable to provide key lessons and highlight pitfalls in the pursuit of nanotechnology-based cancer therapeutics. We review the clinical experience with systemic liposomal drug delivery and parenteral therapy of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) with iron oxide nanoparticles. We note that the clinical success of injectable iron exploits the inherent interaction between nanoparticles and the (innate) immune system, which designers of liposomal drug delivery seek to avoid. Magnetic fluid hyperthermia, a cancer therapy that harnesses magnetic hysteresis heating is approved for treating humans only with iron oxide nanoparticles. Despite its successful demonstration to enhance overall survival in clinical trials, this nanotechnology-based thermal medicine struggles to establish a clinical presence. We review the physical and biological attributes of this approach, and suggest reasons for barriers to its acceptance. Finally, despite the extensive clinical experience with iron oxide nanoparticles new and exciting research points to surprising immune-modulating potential. Recent data demonstrate the interactions between immune cells and iron oxide nanoparticles can induce anti-tumor immune responses. These present new and exciting opportunities to explore additional applications with this venerable technology. Clinical applications of iron oxide nanoparticles present poignant case studies of the opportunities, complexities, and challenges in cancer nanomedicine. They also illustrate the need for revised paradigms and multidisciplinary approaches to develop and translate nanomedicines into clinical cancer care.

Abstract
Exposure to respirable fractions of crystalline silica quartz dust particles is associated with silicosis, cancer and the development of autoimmune conditions. Early cellular interactions are not well understood, partly due to a lack of suitable technological methods. Improved techniques are needed to better quantify and study high-level respirable crystalline silica exposure in human populations. Techniques that can be applied to complex biological matrices are pivotal to understanding particle-cell interactions and the impact of particles within real, biologically complex environments. In this study, we investigated whether imaging flow cytometry could be used to assess the interactions between cells and crystalline silica when present within complex biological matrices. Using the respirable-size fine quartz crystalline silica dust Min-u-sil® 5, we first validated previous reports that, whilst associating with cells, crystalline silica particles can be detected solely through their differential light scattering profile using conventional flow cytometry. This same property reliably identified crystalline silica in association with primary monocytic cells in vitro using an imaging flow cytometry assay, where darkfield intensity measurements were able to detect crystalline silica concentrations as low as 2.5 μg/mL. Finally, we ultilised fresh whole blood as an exemplary complex biological matrix to test the technique. Even after the increased sample processing required to analyse cells within whole blood, imaging flow cytometry was capable of detecting and assessing silica-association to cells. As expected, in fresh whole blood exposed to crystalline silica, neutrophils and cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage phagocytosed the particles. In addition to the use of this technique in in vitro exposure models, this method has the potential to be applied directly to ex vivo diagnostic studies and research models, where the identification of crystalline silica association with cells in complex biological matrices such as bronchial lavage fluids, alongside additional functional and phenotypic cellular readouts, is required.

Abstract
Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) is a well-known pharmaceutical polymer, recently gaining attention in the field of nanomedicine, especially as a polyelectrolyte agent for the formation of complexes with oppositely charged macromolecules. Here, we report on the application of pH-sensitive pharmaceutical grade CMC-based nanoparticles (NP) for white blood cells (WBC) PET imaging. In this context and as an alternative to 99mTc-HMPAO SPECT labeling, the use of 68Ga3+ as PET radionuclide was investigated since, at early time points, it could provide the greater spatial resolution and patient convenience of PET tomography over SPECT clinical practices. Two operator-friendly kit-type formulations were compared, with the intention of radiolabeling within a short time (10 min), under mild conditions (physiological pH, room temperature) and in agreement with the actual clinically applied guidelines. NP were labeled by directly using 68Ga3+ eluted in HCL 0.05 N, from hospital suited 68Ge/68Ga generator and in absence of chelator. The first kit type approach involved the application of 68Ga3+ as an ionotropic gelation agent for in-situ forming NP. The second kit type approach concerned the re-hydration of a proper freeze-dried injectable NP powder. pH-sensitive NP with 250 nm average diameter and 80% labeling efficacy were obtained. The NP dispersant medium, including a cryoprotective agent, was modulated in order to optimize the Zeta potential value (−18 mV), minimize the NP interaction with serum proteins and guarantee a physiological environment for WBC during NP incubation. Time-dependent WBC radiolabeling was correlated to NP uptake by using both confocal and FT-IR microscopies. The ready to use lyophilized NP formulation approach appears promising as a straightforward 68Ga-WBC labeling tool for PET imaging applications.

Impact of nanoparticle surface functionalization on the protein corona and cellular adhesion, uptake and transport. J Nanobiotechnology 2018; 16:70.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Upon ingestion, nanoparticles can interact with the intestinal epithelial barrier potentially resulting in systemic uptake of nanoparticles. Nanoparticle properties have been described to influence the protein corona formation and subsequent cellular adhesion, uptake and transport. Here, we aimed to study the effects of nanoparticle size and surface chemistry on the protein corona formation and subsequent cellular adhesion, uptake and transport. Caco-2 intestinal cells, were exposed to negatively charged polystyrene nanoparticles (PSNPs) (50 and 200 nm), functionalized with sulfone or carboxyl groups, at nine nominal concentrations (15-250 μg/ml) for 10 up to 120 min. The protein coronas were analysed by LC-MS/MS. RESULTS Subtle differences in the protein composition of the two PSNPs with different surface chemistry were noted. High-content imaging analysis demonstrated that sulfone PSNPs were associated with the cells to a significantly higher extent than the other PSNPs. The apparent cellular adhesion and uptake of 200 nm PSNPs was not significantly increased compared to 50 nm PSNPs with the same surface charge and chemistry. Surface chemistry outweighs the impact of size on the observed PSNP cellular associations. Also transport of the sulfone PSNPs through the monolayer of cells was significantly higher than that of carboxyl PSNPs. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that the composition of the protein corona and the PSNP surface chemistry influences cellular adhesion, uptake and monolayer transport, which might be predictive of the intestinal transport potency of NPs.

Abstract
Nanocarriers (NC) are very promising tools for cancer immunotherapy. Whereas conventional vaccines are based on the administration of an antigen and an adjuvant in an independent fashion, nanovaccines can facilitate cell-specific co-delivery of antigen and adjuvant. Furthermore, nanovaccines can be decorated on their surface with molecules that facilitate target-specific antigen delivery to certain antigen-presenting cell types or tumor cells. However, the target cell-specific uptake of nanovaccines is highly dependent on the modifications of the nanocarrier itself. One of these is the formation of a protein corona around NC after in vivo administration, which may potently affect cell-specific targeting and uptake of the NC. Understanding the formation and composition of the protein corona is, therefore, of major importance for the use of nanocarriers in vaccine approaches. This Mini Review will give a short overview of potential non-specific interactions of NC with body fluids or cell surfaces that need to be considered for the design of NC vaccines for immunotherapy of cancer.

Abstract
AIM To optimize the design of nanoparticles for diagnosis or therapy of vascular diseases, it is mandatory to characterize the determinants of nano-bio interactions in vascular lesions. MATERIALS & METHODS Using ex vivo and in vivo microscopy, we analyzed the interactive behavior of quantum dots with different surface functionalizations in atherosclerotic lesions of ApoE-deficient mice. RESULTS We demonstrate that quantum dots with different surface functionalizations exhibit specific interactive behaviors with distinct molecular and cellular components of the injured vessel wall. Moreover, we show a role for fibrinogen in the regulation of the spatio-temporal interaction dynamics in atherosclerotic lesions. CONCLUSION Our findings emphasize the relevance of surface chemistry-driven nano-bio interactions on the differential in vivo behavior of nanoparticles in diseased tissue.

Abstract
Surface modification is frequently used to tailor the interactions of nanoparticles with biological systems. In many cases, the chemical nature of the treatments employed to modify the biological interface (for example attachment of hydrophilic polymers or targeting groups) is the focus of attention. However, isolation of the fundamental effects of the materials employed to modify the interface are often confounded by secondary effects imparted by the underlying substrate. Herein, we demonstrate that polymer replica particles templated from degradable mesoporous silica provide a facile means to evaluate the impact of surface modification on the biological interactions of nanomaterials, independent of the substrate. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(N-(2 hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide) (PHPMA), and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) were templated onto mesoporous silica and cross-linked and the residual particles were removed. The resulting nanoparticles, comprising interfacial polymer alone, were then investigated using a range of in vitro and in vivo tests. As expected, the PEG particles showed the best stealth properties, and these trends were consistent in both in vitro and in vivo studies. PMA particles showed the highest cell association in cell lines in vitro and were rapidly taken up by monocytes in ex vivo whole blood, properties consistent with the very high in vivo clearance subsequently seen in rats. In contrast, PHPMA particles showed rapid association with both granulocytes and monocytes in ex vivo whole blood, even though in vivo clearance was less rapid than the PMA particles. Rat studies confirmed better systemic exposure for PEG and PHPMA particles when compared to PMA particles. This study provides a new avenue for investigating material-dependent biological behaviors of polymer particles, irrespective of the properties of the underlying core, and provides insights for the selection of polymer particles for future biological applications.

Abstract
Pigment grade titanium dioxide is composed of sub‐micron sized particles, including a nanofraction, and is widely utilized in food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and biomedical industries. Oral exposure to pigment grade titanium dioxide results in at least some material entering the circulation in humans, although subsequent interactions with blood immune cells are unknown. Pigment grade titanium dioxide is employed for its strong light scattering properties, and this work exploited that attribute to determine whether single cell–particle associations could be determined in immune cells of human whole blood at “real life” concentrations. In vitro assays, initially using isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells, identified titanium dioxide associated with the surface of, and within, immune cells by darkfield reflectance in imaging flow cytometry. This was confirmed at the population level by side scatter measurements using conventional flow cytometry. Next, it was demonstrated that imaging flow cytometry could quantify titanium dioxide particle‐bearing cells, within the immune cell populations of fresh whole blood, down to titanium dioxide levels of 10 parts per billion, which is in the range anticipated for human blood following titanium dioxide ingestion. Moreover, surface association and internal localization of titanium dioxide particles could be discriminated in the assays. Overall, results showed that in addition to the anticipated activity of blood monocytes internalizing titanium dioxide particles, neutrophil internalization and cell membrane adhesion also occurred, the latter for both phagocytic and nonphagocytic cell types. What happens in vivo and whether this contributes to activation of one or more of these different cells types in blood merits further attention. © 2017 The Authors.

Abstract
In this study, we synthesize charge-varied hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) and demonstrate surface charge as a key parameter directing their association with specific human blood cell types. Using fresh human blood, we investigate the association of 5 nm HBPs with six white blood cell populations in their natural milieu by flow cytometry. While most cell types associate with cationic HBPs at 4 °C, at 37 °C phagocytic cells display similar (monocyte, dendritic cell) or greater (granulocyte) association with anionic HBPs compared to cationic HBPs. Neutral HBPs display remarkable stealth properties. Notably, these charge-association patterns are not solely defined by the plasma protein corona and are material and/or size dependent. As HBPs progress toward clinical use as imaging and drug delivery agents, the ability to engineer HBPs with defined biological properties is increasingly important. This knowledge can be used in the rational design of HBPs for more effective delivery to desired cell targets.

Abstract
Directing nanoparticles to specific cell types using nonantibody-based methods is of increasing interest. Thiol-reactive nanoparticles can enhance the efficiency of cargo delivery into specific cells through interactions with cell-surface proteins. However, studies to date using this technique have been largely limited to immortalized cell lines or rodents, and the utility of this technology on primary human cells is unknown. Herein, we used RAFT polymerization to prepare pyridyl disulfide (PDS)-functionalized star polymers with a methoxy-poly(ethylene glycol) brush corona and a fluorescently labeled cross-linked core using an arm-first method. PDS star polymers were examined for their interaction with primary human blood components: six separate white blood cell subsets, as well as red blood cells and platelets. Compared with control star polymers, thiol-reactive nanoparticles displayed enhanced association with white blood cells at 37 °C, particularly the phagocytic monocyte, granulocyte, and dendritic cell subsets. Platelets associated with more PDS than control nanoparticles at both 37 °C and on ice, but they were not activated in the duration examined. Association with red blood cells was minor but still enhanced with PDS nanoparticles. Thiol-reactive nanoparticles represent a useful strategy to target primary human immune cell subsets for improved nanoparticle delivery.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles present an attractive choice for carcinogenic cell destruction via hyperthermia treatment due to its small size and magnetic susceptibility. Dextran stabilized iron oxide nanoparticles (DIONPs) synthesized and characterized for this purpose were used to evaluate its effect on cellular uptake, cytotoxicity, and oxidative stress response in human peripheral blood lymphocytes. In the absence of efficient internalization and perceptible apoptosis, DIONPs were still capable of inducing significant levels of reactive oxygen species formation shortly after exposure. Although these particles did not cause any genotoxic effect, they enhanced the expression of a few relevant oxidative stress and antioxidant defense related genes, accompanied by an increase in the glutathione peroxidase activity. These results indicate that under the tested conditions, DIONPs induced only minimal levels of oxidative stress in lymphocytes. Understanding the biological interaction of DIONPs, the consequences as well as the associated mechanisms in vitro, together with information obtained from systemic studies, could be expected to advance the use of these particles for further clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has improved lifespan and quality of life of patients infected with the HIV-1. However, ART has several potential limitations, including the development of drug resistance and suboptimal penetration to selected anatomic compartments. Improving the delivery of antiretroviral molecules could overcome several of the limitations of current ART. RESULTS & CONCLUSION Two to ten nanometer diameter inorganic gold crystals serve as a base scaffold to combine molecules with an array of properties in its surface. We show entry into different cell types, antiviral activity of an HIV integrase inhibitor conjugated in a gold nanoparticle and penetration into the brain in vivo without toxicity. Herein, gold nanoparticles prove to be a promising tool to use in HIV therapy.

Abstract
Protein adsorption on nanoparticles has been a focus of the field of nanocarrier research in the past few years and more and more papers are dealing with increasingly detailed lists of proteins adsorbed to a plethora of nanocarriers. While there is an urgent need to understand the influence of this protein corona on nanocarriers' interactions with cells the strong impact of the protein source on corona formation and the consequence for interaction with different cell types are factors that are regularly neglected, but should be taken into account for a meaningful analysis. In this study, the importance of the choice of protein source used for in vitro protein corona analysis is concisely investigated. Major and decisive differences in cellular uptake of a polystyrene nanoparticle incubated in fetal bovine serum, human serum, human citrate and heparin plasma are reported. Furthermore, the protein compositions are determined for coronas formed in the respective incubation media. A strong influence of heparin, which is used as an anticoagulant for plasma generation, on cell interaction is demonstrated. While heparin enhances the uptake into macrophages, it prevents internalization into HeLa cells. Taken together we can give the recommendation that human plasma anticoagulated with citrate seems to give the most relevant results for in vitro studies of nanoparticle uptake.

Abstract
Understanding nanoparticle-protein interactions is a crucial issue in the development of targeted nanomaterial delivery. Besides unraveling the composition of the nanoparticle's protein coronas, distinct proteins thereof could control nanoparticle uptake into specific cell types. Here we differentially analyzed the protein corona composition on four polymeric differently functionalized nanoparticles by label-free quantitative mass spectrometry. Next, we correlated the relative abundance of identified proteins in the corona with enhanced or decreased cellular uptake of nanoparticles into human cancer and bone marrow stem cells to identify key candidates. Finally, we verified these candidate proteins by artificially decorating nanoparticles with individual proteins showing that nanoparticles precoated with the apolipoproteins ApoA4 or ApoC3 significantly decreased the cellular uptake, whereas precoating with ApoH increased the cellular uptake.
